I think, reading the Wiki at

https://github.com/xianyi/OpenBLAS/wiki/faq#multi-threaded

that you will want to add

USE_THREAD=0 and USE_LOCKING=1

so not to interfere with other dependent apps also using threads. There
are a few, like numpy, scipy, etc. In other words, more than zero.

This conflicts with your current Makefile. Actual impact of adopting
OpenBLAS then becomes a question.

Also, if you have older platforms, like hopefully very old, you will
want to check a build on new platform still works on old platforms
like Haswell. I would try myself but can't this month.
